Abstract

There are many species of bamboo a rural ecosystem of West Java, growing wild or being cultivated. Both bamboo species and bamboo gardens have various ecological, economic, and socio-cultural functions. However, many bamboo gardens in rural West Java have been converted to other land uses. Consequently, the reduction or loss of various ecological, economic and socio-cultural functions of bamboo. The purpose of this study was to assess the local knowledge of the rural people on the landraces, utilization, and management of bamboos among rural people of Sukamenak Village, Sumedang of West Java. The method used in this study was mixed-method, a combination of qualitative and quantitative with an ethnobotanical approach. Some techniques, including observation and in-depth interviews with competent informants were employed. Data analysis was carried out by cross-checking, summarizing and synthesizing, and building up narrative. The results showed that 9 bamboo landraces were recorded in Sukamenak Village. The nine landraces of bamboo are classified by local people according to the morphology and color of the internode, edible and non-edible shoots, and their ecological functions in the rural ecosystem. The landraces of bamboo are commonly used by rural people for economic, social and ecological purposes. The utilization and management of bamboo gardens are undertaken by rural people based on local knowledge and are strongly embedded with local culture. We suggest the further studies on bamboo ethnoecology need to be continued due to bamboos have various socio-economic, cultural and ecological functions.

Abstract

Menurut pandangan Hardin, padang penggembalaan dan berbagai sumberdaya milik bersama lainnya, biasanya dimanfaatkan oleh setiap orang secara bebas, tanpa ada insentif untuk mengkonservasinya. Karena itu, tidaklah heran bahwa berbagai sumberdaya milik bersama atau tidak ada pemiliknya sangat rentan mengalami “the tragedy of the commons”. Di samping itu, menurut Hardin, berbagai sumberdaya milik bersama hanya dapat dikelola dengan baik melalui swastanisasi atau dikontrol pihak pemerintah. Namun, berdasarkan hasil-hasil studi dari berbagai kelompok masyarakat di berbagai wilayah, menunjukkan bahwa berbagai sumberdaya milik bersama, seperti maritim, padang penggembalaan, dan hutan tidak selalu mengalami degradasi. Hal ini dikarenakan berbagai sumberdaya milik bersama tersebut tidak selalu merupakan akses tanpa pemilikan, dan bebas dimanfaatkan oleh setiap orang. Selain itu, kenyataan di lapangan juga menunjukkan bahwa pengelolaan sumberdaya milik bersama tidak selalu dapat dikelola secara efektif oleh pihak swasta atau pemerintah. Karena itu, tidaklah heran bahwa pandangan Hardin tersebut banyak dikritik oleh berbagai kalangan ilmuwan pasca Hardin. Artikel ini mendeskripsikan tantangan terhadap teori Hardin mengenai “the tragedy of the commons” bahwa berbagai sumberdaya milik bersama selalu rentan mengalami degradasi. Kata kunci: tragedi milik bersama, berbagai sumberdaya milik bersama, degradasi lingkungan.

Abstract

Secara tradisional, masyarakat Dayak yang bermukim di tiga desa: Desa Dempar, Jontai, dan Sembuan, Kutai Barat, Kalimantan Timur telah berhasil mengelola hutan secara berkelanjutan, terutama untuk berladang, bertanam rotan, bertanam buah-buahan, dan mengumpulkan berbagai hasil ikutan hutan. Namun, dewasa ini pengelolaan hutan secara tradisional oleh masyarakat Dayak tersebut telah menglami perubahan secara drastis. Hal ini disebabkan karena daerahdaerah hutan mereka telah dimanfaatkan untuk kepentingan HPH/HPHH. Pada tulisan ini penulis membahas tentang berbagai isu mendasar tentang berbagai perubahan lokal pengelolaan hutan oleh masyarakat Dayak yang tinggal di tiga desa yang diakibatkan oleh adanya aktivitas HPH(Hak Pengusahaan Hutan)/ HPHH (Hak Pengusahaan Hasil Hutan atau HPH skala kecil). Penulis berpendapat bahwa keberhasilan pengelolaan hutan oleh masyarakat lokal di 3 desa itu telah terganggu dengan berat oleh HPH/HPHH. Konsekuensinya, keterlanjutan ekosistem hutan untuk masa mendatang cenderung sulit dipertahankan oleh masyarakat Dayak tersebut. Kata Kunci: pengelolaan hutan, aktivitas HPH/HPHH, perubahan, sistem keterlanjutan

Abstract

Traditional market is often one of the locations for economic turnover in an area. Various goods from villages, sub-districts, and other areas around the city are sent to be traded. In this market there is a large system that makes the market “live” in which there are interrelated actors. Some of the actors in the traditional market system such as the Beringharjo Market are women who work odd jobs. To see this phenomenon, this study used an ethnographic method to delve deeper into the phenomena that occur from the point of view of stakeholders in Beringharjo Market. The results of study showed that Beringharjo Market always changes from time to time, both physically and the actors who “live it”. Women who work in al kind of work become one of the actors who play an important role in the sustainability of dynamic market activities.

Abstract

This study examines the relation between women and agroforestry in Cijedil and Wangunjaya Villages, Cugenang District, Cianjur Regency, West Java. The study of the dynamics of agroforestry management, which is an agricultural practice carried out on forest land or land that resembles a forest, is carried out using an ecofeminist perspective. The study was conducted in two villages in Cianjur, West Java, Indonesia. These two villages are representatives of agroforestry land variations, which consist of forest, agroforestry, and agricultural land. This land type represents the level of human intervention in forest land management. The research was conducted using quantitative and qualitative research methods, using interviews and observation as key data collection instruments. The results of the study found that the division of labor based on gender in agroforestry practices has changed. Significant changes were also found in the relations between women and agroforestry, as well as gender relations in the decision-making process related to agroforestry in farmer households. From an eco-feminist perspective, this study shows that the dynamics of women in managing agroforestry not only increases the role of women, but also strengthens the position of women as employers in their own agroferestry land.
